Now as our poor young lungs deflate, I'll admit I've gotten older
CGD/B
Mellowed out, chatting up those I used to hate
GG7
The feeling that we're lost will always fade, I present no explanation
CGD/B
Can't expect our tired patience to satiate for long
CG
And therein lies a truth we can sip when we want
CG
Disciples of the flow we can float anywhere
CG
If ever there's a drought I've listed the puddles
DD/B
Proven to better coax the divine out from within
GBCG
Bum, bum, bum, buh duh duh, dum,
CD/B
Buh duh, duh duh, duh duh, duh duh duh, duh duh duh, duh duh, duh, dum
GB7
Remember there's more road, and places to go
CG
And patterns to contemplate, more people to fornicate
CD/B
And remember there's a lot of good omens supplying the proof that our life is the best joke ever told
GB7
Remember its a joke, and leave it alone.
CG
Let go and try to be always abiding
CD/B
Remember if there's one good reason for dying, the sweet silver lining, through you she lives on
CG
And therein lies a coast we can see through the fog
CG
An island in our thoughts can be heaven on Earth
CGD/B
I swear to God if I haven't wandered all over then I haven't done something that's worth telling at all
GBCG
Bum, bum, bum, buh duh duh, dum,
CD/B
Buh duh, duh duh, duh duh, duh duh duh, duh duh duh, duh duh, duh, dum
D (hold) C (hold)
After the hell that you've been through, what could I even say?
GB7
Our Auntie Earth will take us in
CG
She awaits our battered shells
CGD/B
I'll try to lay as close as I can to you, but while we're breathing I should tell you
GB7
From the depths of the void I will
CG
Love you for your growing crows feet
CGD/B
And fully adore the contradictions that we live, as all I can give
GBCC
Bum, bum, bum, buh duh duh, dum,
GC
Buh duh, duh duh, duh duh, duh duh duh, duh duh duh, duh duh, duh, dum
G (hold)
Buh, dum
